Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

In 1296, he was named Bishop of Toulouse by Boniface VIII.
By accepting this charge, Louis of Anjou then becomes Louis of Toulouse. He will ask a favor from the Pope, that of being able to keep the Franciscan habit tied at the waist with a cord which our subject is wearing here.

Our Saint Louis de Toulouse is made of resinous wood carved in the round, polychrome and gilded.
Beardless, standing and mitred, he holds his crozier (brought back) with his left hand.

Molded terrace with sides.
From the Languedoc region.
A precise work of the XVIth.

Good overall condition but accidents and losses including the left hand

This beautiful piece was appraised by Mrs. Laurence Fligny
